Testimonial
Working with Timmy during our time at Brandone was a pleasure. Timmy is full of energy, conscientious, constantly striving to improve and push for the success of the company. Timmy is a strategic thinker and effective problem solver who I am happy to recommend.
TBenson (popular called) is a brilliant goal-getter, he never believes there is box where he thinks from - meaning he is never boxed in corner for he is always seeking a new angle. During my work experience with him, his idea generation approach and execution plans were just on-point which in the long run yielded high revenue output. Temitope was a plus to the team and his absence was greatly felt, for he's got a blend of business alignment principles with ability to maximize technology's strength in product execution. In addition to his high level of professionalism, he is a cool, smart and fun-loving person to be with. He is a must-have on a team....I vouch for him.
Temitope is a confident and passionate individual. Though he has an entrepreneurial spirit, he is also an excellent team player. During the period we worked together,he constantly shared innovative ideas which propelled the team towards achieving our objectives. He is someone I hope to work with again.
Temitope Benson is resourceful and one of the most likable person I have met. He follows his passion, he is optimistic and realistic with his views. His dedication to his personal growth, business growth and exceeding expectations with measurable management is extraordinary.
Temitope is constantly searching for ways to improve the business. At Brandtone he worked relentlessly to ensure that we had a great service and managed our day to day relationships with aggregators (tech and commercial). In addition he also liaised directly with client accounts to understand their needs and create our statement of work. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Temitope again.
Temitope is a hardworking, results-driven and focused individual who takes ownership of projects and put in the work in ensuring that he gets the best outcome for them and for the business. He would add value to any team or organisation. I fully recommend him.
Temitope is a dedicated fellow with strong sense of ownership on his responsibilities. He's always displayed the drive to challenge the Status Quo and improve service delivery to clients.
I have had the privilege of working with Temitope Benson for a few years. Tope and I were commissioned to work on Guinness Nigeria Digital Media Campaign pitch together. Through the several weeks that we spent together preparing for the pitch, Tope showed his expertise both as a digital marketing professional and a creative person. We have also worked on projects for Telecommunication Giants MTN, AIRTEL, Glo and other multinational companies in Nigeria. He is hardworking, diligent in his duties and smart.
Temitope is a true professional in his career and I can beat my chest any day to claim that he is one of the best talents I have recruited in my HR career. He's good with people, meets deadlines, versatile and always ready to learn different things, offers advises and a great blogger. It's no doubt in my mind. Temitope will go places and add value to any establishment he works with. I truly cherish the pleasure of working with him and tapping into his personality.
T-Benson as he was fondly called is an excited executioner whose vigor in delivering on set goals was a product of his positive approach towards work and life. He is a people's person and was also known to be that great guy who always throws in some ice-breakers whenever the team was becoming too stiff and too mechanical. He is versatile across different fronts and working with him was truly memorable. He has my respect anytime any day cause he is a doer; no doubt he is every winning team's delight.
T-Benson is a top notch performer with a knack for grinding out results under the most unpleasant conditions. He is highly recommended
Temitope is a professional who is passionate about his area of expertise & entrepreneurial in his thinking. He is a visionary young man who exhibits superior leadership and managerial skills with good balance of empathy. Passionate about people development & success to realize their dreams and visions.
